Validating data with batch jobs using geoprocessing

Once batch jobs have been created, they can be used to validate data. One of the ways a batch job can be executed is by using the Execute Reviewer Batch Job script in the Data Reviewer Tools toolbox. This script allows you to run a batch job on a workspace and write the results to the Reviewer table in a specified Reviewer session.

Note:

The default checks are not run if the batch job you run on the data only includes database validation checks (Connectivity Rules, Domain, Relationships, or Subtype) or table checks (Execute SQL, Regular Expression, Table to Table Attribute, or Unique ID). This is because the default checks validate spatial conditions and do not include attribute validation.

   The ArcToolbox window appears.

3. Browse to Data Reviewer Tools > Execute Reviewer Batch Job.
